They do not gain domain powers of other Cleric abilities. #### ecology **Organization** Solitary, pair, or troop (5–12) **Advancement** 12–16 HD (Large); 17–33 HD (Huge) Spirits of the air are whimsical creatures that serve deities of the wind and sky, or even nondeific powers that deal in the same areas. They travel the upper parts of the atmosphere near windy mountaintops as well as the windswept plains of the lowlands. Wherever there is wind, you can find sprits of the air catching updrafts and soaring through the clouds. A spirit of the air resembles a monkey, roughly 10 feet tall, with elongated fingers that form the ribs of its fanlike wings. The coloration of their furred bodies ranges from dark brown to blond, and their tusked mouths have a mirthful set, even when the spirits are engaged in battle. A spirit of the air’s mouth sports two tusks that curl up toward the creature’s nose, then out toward its cheeks. In its long, prehensile tail is typically clutched a heavy mace. Spirits of the air claim windy areas as their terri- tories. Due to their remark- able mobility, these terri- tories sometimes stretch for hundreds of miles. Creatures that pass within are generally unmolested, but the sprits sometimes take offense at unseen slights and rush to attack interlopers. Spirits of the air speak Auran, Draconic, and Giant. ### Combat Spirits of the air fight while hovering whenever possible. They use their spell-like abilities from a distance, then close to melee. If their maces are not particularly successful, they resort to their whirlwind attack.
